Sebastian Vettel, the four-time Formula 1 world champion, began his journey with Porsche Penske Motorsport by testing a Porsche 963 Hypercar. This test took place at Motorland Aragon in Spain as preparation for an official test.
There have been previous discussions about the possibility of Vettel joining the Jota Porsche Hypercar program in 2024. However, he decided not to commit to a full season in the FIA World Endurance Championship. Despite this, there is a possibility of Vettel making a one-time appearance at the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans event. Porsche Penske Motorsport will be competing with a third factory prototype exclusively for Le Mans, known as #4 963.
Currently, the only confirmed driver for car #4 is Mathieu Jaminet. Vettel’s debut behind the wheel of the 963 could indicate his potential participation in the famous race. Vettel expressed his excitement to test the Porsche 963, mentioning that he had already gained some familiarity with the car during a test in Weissach. He also shared his curiosity for endurance events, which motivated him to give it a try.
Vettel acknowledged that the long race in Aragon will require some adjustment and adaptation. However, he praised the team for being open and supportive, making the experience new and exciting for him. As for the future, Vettel stated that there are currently no additional plans in that regard.
Recently, Sebastian Vettel met with the operational team of Porsche Penske Motorsport in Mannheim, Germany, on March 14. The following day, he took part in simulator sessions. On March 22, Vettel had the opportunity to test the 963 on the track at Porsche’s research and development facilities in Weissach. His next step in his journey with the Hypercar will be to participate in the 36-hour endurance test in Aragon next week, alongside official drivers Matt Campbell, Michael Christensen, Frédéric Makowiecki, Kévin Estre, André Lotterer, and Laurens Vanthoor.
Thomas Laudenbach, Vice President of Porsche Motorsport, expressed his satisfaction with Vettel’s interest in the Porsche 963. The company was more than happy to support his request and provide him with extensive preparation and enough time to drive his hybrid prototype. They believe that Vettel’s valuable feedback will greatly contribute to the learning process. The 36-hour race with Porsche Penske Motorsport and its official drivers at Motorland Aragón will provide the perfect environment for this collaboration.
The combination of Vettel and Porsche at Le Mans would be truly iconic. Vettel’s legendary status in the world of F1 is well known, as is Porsche’s history of success at Le Mans. With an impressive 19 overall victories in the 24 Hours of Endurance, Porsche is ready to challenge for victory number 20. Vanthoor, Estre, and Lotterer emerged victorious in car #6 at the opening round of the FIA WEC season in Qatar, following their success at the 2024 Daytona 24 Hours with drivers Dane Cameron, Campbell, Josef Newgarden, and Felipe Nasr.
